forlanssister 3,061 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I don't remember the context of that statement but it referred to 2010 and it was correct. I was involved in discussions with a Trust Company who were representing Andrew Ellis, I introduced the lawyers who were acting for Jim McColl to the RST and I had a number of meetings and discussions with them on behalf of the RST. I'm really not sure the point you are trying to make but I am not involved in any such discussions with anyone at the moment. Point is simple, you mock King's attempt to engage with the fans and force change as 'futile' but your own attempts to find a sugar daddy to pony up on behalf of the fans and force change was ultimately equally as 'futile' if not more so. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,307 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 or until he refuses. but as much as anything i was talking about the buying shares. laxley and prior bough about 4 percent tops. it would make no difference what so ever to do that. So just how does 'yer man dave' plan to take over Rangers then? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 So just how does 'yer man dave' plan to take over Rangers then? Via a share issue where he and others invest. It's not necessarily a matter of taking over. Just a matter of changing our focus and ambitions to appropriate ones. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinker 887 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Via a share issue where he and others invest. Will this be allowed to happen though? It's beginning to feel like the club is being held at knife-point. "Pay up Dave, or we'll slice off Auchenhowie. Then maybe Ibrox..." They're in a position where they can make decisions that could cripple the club for decades to come. I hate to say it but Dave is going to have to offer the current coalition of shareholders more money than they'd be able to siphon off the club, and he needs to do it before they sign-off on any more onerous contracts. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club will sell Murray Park before taking kings money because that makes greenco richer. It's horrendous for rangers though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTinMan99 0 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 The club will sell Murray Park before taking kings money because that makes greenco richer. It's horrendous for rangers though. The damage was done when so many of us backed Green all the way to the bank, including most of our supporters groups. The head honcho's of the UOF were as far up Green's arse as anyone at one point. Whatever the support does now will be bad for the club, even a total boycott. The shareholders have the club by the balls, and anyone that backed Green at any point, is 100% to blame. Green set us on a road to mediocrity at best, ruin at worst. King is trying his hardest to find a way out the shit, and still a decent amount of us deride him. Our only hope is every solitary fan standing behind him. Fat chance. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

King would have to make an offer that is the most profitable for them. They'll take the most profitable course of action, regardless of the impact on the club's future so, sadly, someone is going to spend a great deal of money to make sure the most profitable course of action is in the best interests of the club. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry there's no chance of that. King has no intention of putting his kids inheritance into Rangers 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calgacus 8 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Any idea who they can sell Auchenhowie to and why would anyone want to buy it? Someone buys it and rents it back to the club on a full repairing and insuring lease. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
